February. Always one of our hottest months. Stay sun safe!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Finding the correct sun cream<\/strong>
\n\"\"Sun protection is a crucial element of healthy skin, but finding the right sun cream can be a challenge. Let\u2019s face it … some of us have sensitive skin, others oily, we want safe options for our children and are worried about hyperpigmentation. Hello Bioderma\u2019s Photoderm<\/strong> range … who boast they have a product for each skin type and each skin condition under the sun! There are options for sensitive skin (gentle, high-protection formulas minimise irritation and allergies), for oily a acne-prone skin (lightweight, non-comedogenic options prevent breakouts), for dry skin (hydrating sun cream that provides essential moisture alongside protection), for those with hyperpigmentation concerns (formulas with specific ingredients help prevent and minimise dark spots) and for children and babies. With most having an SPF50+, there\u2019s a cream for blue light protection, and those with natural, light and golden tints. What we love … the creams are non-sticky, water resistant, fast absorbing and invisible. You\u2019ll find the range, from around R245, at DisChem and Clicks.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Canvas cotton canopy. Retro tassel fringing. Natural wood pole. Pool, beach, picnic … this Llandudno Beach Traveller Umbrella<\/strong> is the bomb. It has a UPF50+ canvas cotton canopy, an adjustable hinge, so you can move it with the sun, and is big enough for two. There\u2019s also a minimalist carrier bag. Summer never looked so good! R2450 from thebeachbumscpt.com<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"Stay hydrated. The Field Bottle<\/strong> is a fully insulated, double walled, stainless steel drinking flask … this Beach Stripes design collection in orchard orange ticks the glam Summer box. R799 from fieldbar.co.za<\/p>\n

Lamelle\u2019s ground-breaking Helase 50+<\/strong> is a multi-functional, anti-ageing sun protection product that transcends SPF by providing better protection against the entire spectrum of sunlight, while the super-antioxidant Pycnogenol destroys harmful free radicals to decrease the number of harmful enzymes that cause thinning and sagging of the skin. On top of this, it decreases the damaging and ageing inflammation in the skin while actively stopping the effects of ageing on the skin and keeping the skin\u2019s immunity intact when exposed to sunlight. It is suitable for the whole family, all skin tones, and all skin types. R640 from dermastore.co.za<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
